RE: In-Ground, DE Filter Pool With Clear Green Water

Also, forgot to add, interesting that you only found that ingredient to take care of calcium scale, and not metals. Wonder why Leslie pools would name it Metal X in that case, hmm. Seems a bit misleading, to say the least. I can see now why most pool company products don't have a good rep here. lol.

You mentioned that you've been using trichlor pucks in the feeders, which do contain quite a bit of CYA and will raise it quickly. If you've been using the trichlor pucks for a long time, the algae growth is probably because the CYA has gotten too high and you're not maintaining adequate chlorine levels for it. I've skimmed through this thread a couple of times, and I don't see a CYA level listed...when you get your kit, please test for CYA and post that number.....

Before you do a stain removal process, check with me. I think I'm about to revise that process. In particular, you MUST have a full set of K2006 readings, especially including TA & CH.
